Ski 4 Kids

February 28-March 6, 2021

Ski 4 Kids is going virtual this year for all to enjoy. We will host a ski-on-your-own course at Kincaid during the week of February 28-March 6th with all-new story boards to adorn the course. Skiers who complete the Kincaid course will be able to check in at the chalet afterwards to claim their swag. No registration is required, but donations are welcome.

Course Details

The Ski-It-Yourself course will be set-up starting Sunday, February 28th at Noon and will run through the afternoon of Saturday, March 6th. The storybook pages can be found along the first half of the Mize Loop.

No registration is required, but donations are welcome.

The Story

Thanks to Anchorage Parks and Recreation, all-new storyboards will adorn the course along with a treasure hunt for characters and objects from the story.

Cruise the course and search for hidden treasures for each chapter, but make sure to leave them behind for others to find!

Continuing the Ski 4 Kids mission for 2021

Ski 4 Kids has granted almost $100,000 since 2007 to 39 different ski programs in the Anchorage area! So Along with the outdoor skiing option, Ski 4 Kids is continuing its commitment to the ski equipment grant program, especially for those kids and schools the program cannot reach this season due to COVID-19 precautions. If you’re looking to support an impactful community program, please consider donating to the Ski 4 Kids event! Erin Whitney Witmer, Ski 4 Kids Committee Chair, encourages community members to consider a donation, “This is a great way to support kids in an active and healthy lifestyle, and also build an even stronger community of skiers to support trails and programs in the future.”
